Mission
Seeking to put god's love into action, habitat for humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope to realize our vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Habitat for Humanity Serving Winona County adheres to a strict non-proselytizing policy and will not base an offer of assistance on the expressed or implied condition that people adhere to or convert to a particular faith or listen and respond to messaging designed to induce conversion to a particular faith.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Families in need of a decent place to live build safe and affordable homes in partnership with us. Habitat houses are modestly sized. They are large enough for the homeowner family's needs, but small enough to keep construction and maintenance costs affordable. By using the labor of volunteers and prospective homeowners, employing efficient building methods, keeping house sizes modest, using donated construction materials and appliances, and issuing nonprofit loans, habitat makes its houses affordable for low-income families to purchase. Affordable homeownership helps create the conditions that free families from instability, stress and fear and encourage self-reliance and confidence.

$946,400 spent$725,200 earned by the program79% of program spendingOpen to the public, the habitat restore is a home improvement reuse store that sells gently used and new building materials and furniture at a fraction of retail prices. Items sold in the store are donated by area business and individuals who support the affordable housing cause. The low price of goods sold helps people who struggle to afford home improvement materials as well as those who love a good deal. The restore offers free donation pick-ups, donations are tax deductible, and reusable goods are diverted from the landfill. Since the restore opened its doors in 2003, 3,693,973 pounds of reusable goods have been diverted from the landfill. And most importantly, proceeds from restore sales help habitat for humanity build and repair homes in winona and fillmore counties. With only two and a half staff, the restore is staffed primarily by a volunteer workforce.
$250,289 spent$8,275 earned by the program21% of program spendingWe partner with families, communities and local organizations to help older adults improve their homes and their quality of life so that they can flourish where they live. To guide our work, habitat developed housing plus, a comprehensive aging in place strategy. This person-centered approach uses two different assessments to tailor the process to each homeowner's needs. These assessments, which consider everything from the resident's lifestyle to their type of home, allow us to address older adults' needs holistically, improving the likelihood that they can age in place. During fy2025, Habitat for Humanity Serving Winona County has improved approximately 40 homes to help older adults maneuver more efficiently.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2017 to 2018, from $2.0M to $2.7M (+36%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 6% · 2022 0% · 2023 7% · 2024 20% · 2025 4%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
59% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund HABITAT FOR HUMANITY SERVING WINONA COUNTY.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $201k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
